#150 amp isolator manual#

I thought great I have this new gizmo, so I press the button so that I could drop current from my secondary battery. After leaving town for a few days, and returning, my starting battery was down to 3 V. That parasitic battery draw that I mentioned earlier. This way I can just reach over and manually hit the switch to connect both batteries, for easy starting if the first battery is low. However I installed this on the interior of my car.

It would at least be nice to have some kind of manual override. However, the fact that I only have to hook up the positives from each battery to this unit and then a simple grounding of this unit, makes this something I can easily live with. It’s somehow supposed to detect the true voltage of the first battery and not start charging the second battery until a certain voltage level on the first battery is present. It detects the 14 and immediately starts charging the second battery. I’m getting exactly 14 volts off of my alternator. The second thing is that it starts charging the second battery faster than I would like. The first reason is that it doesn’t come with something to cover the positive terminal’s. There are only two small reasons why I wouldn’t give this a five out of five. This works very much as stated in the description. I just cut it in half where it ran through the cab of my vehicle and installed the device in between. The largest of course, is the four gauge wire to my stereo amplifiers. So now I can use those extra leads, to move one circuit at a time to the rear battery. I am fortunate enough to have several leads, originally for the accessories, that run all the way to the rear. The nice thing is that I’ll be able to easily figure out if it’s just my accessories, or if it’s something running off of the ECU that won’t shut down. I bought an AGM deep cycle battery for the accessory battery.

The second reason why I bought this, is because I run a lot of accessories and I’m installing a second battery for towing purposes and the accessories. The first reason is because I have a parasitic draw on my starting battery.
